After crossing two immense glaciers the descent of the Rolwaling valley through picturesque Sherpa villages is a great introduction to the equally hospitable Gurung and Tamang villages. The final challenge is a section of wild ridge-top rhododendron forests before descending to the extensive nunnery at Bigu Gompa and driving to Kathmandu.
